man before any accident occurred. Some |
trouble and been experienced by the road
previous to the same neighhorhood, and
accordingly a man was set to watch for
similar occurrences again. as it was cvi
IDENTITY prompted by malice on the part Of
some enemy of the road living in the

for some time at Silver Bow in the interest
of the road, endeavoring to detect the per-
pctralor oi the intended mischief, when he
was told by section man on Saturday at
about that he had Just removed two 600,
pounds rails from the track about three
miles and half from Silver Bow which
could not have been placed there more
than ten minutes before they were re-
moved. This brought the matter pretty
the section man to the spot where the rails
had been found upon the track, and, on in
vestigation, fresh horse tracks were found
that led to the house Of a farmer in the
neighhorhood. He found where the horses
had been hi,ched to a telegraph pole. The
captain lost no time, but when he located
, the authors Of the intended mischief, he
came up to Butte, which he reached late at
| night, and procured warrant for the ar
rest of l.. Byars and Thomas Bokart from
Judge Dingevon. Going to the Sheriff :

The National Park.

Hon Charles Gibson, OF St. Louis, one
OF the managers of the National Park, in
a conference at ST. Paul with General
Manager Waters, is reported by the Pic
ufry Press as saying of the work Of the en-.
suing year: "The Park will open June sth
the same date as last year, and as early in
that altitude as it can be opened. The
prospects are for an increase Of travel this
year over last, and think that our accom-
moda,ions will be ready by the time they
begin to come. know that the travel to
the Park from the South will be greater
than ever before. The new railroad from
San Francisco TO Portland, which will be
completed within twenty days, will bring
many tourists in also. The Interstate
Commerce law will affect the travel some,
but principally ir official circles. We will
erect hotel at the Grand Canyon this
season. the materials now being ON the
ground for it. improvements are to be
made at the Upper and Lower geysers.
One OF the greatest troubles is the mean
ness of Congress in lis neglect to make
ample appropriations for the roads needed
in the park, and not the best half at that.
We will keep up with the work Of the
government, but We cannot build hotels
where there are no roads. There is an ap,
preparation Of $4,000 for roads this year,
and it will probably be used for the com
pletion Of roads already under way. |

the law, but no more than could naturally
be expected. 1t is impossible TO prevent

The Indian Severalty Law.

The bill for allotting lands 10 the Indians
in severalty became a law near the close Of
the last session Of congress, and our pres.
cnt system of Indian affairs will soon un
der 90 radical and thorough change.
The purpose OF this law is to place the
Indians, with the exception Of five civilized
tribes in the Indian territory, upon farms
Of reasonable size; to secure those farms to
them in fee simple in such manner that
the holders will be unable to aicnatc
them until after twenty five years; to open
the surplus lands to white settlers for the
pecuniary benefit Of the Indians, and to
make every Indian who takes u farm so
allotted in severalty citizen OF the
United States.
This law accomplishes several purposes,
all Of which are desirable. 1t breaks UP
all the tribal relations Of the Indians, thus
destroying the anomalous condition OF
affairs which has compelled the govern
ment to treat by treaty with its own sub
yects as with a foreign nation; it will pro-
vide for the support of Of the Indians until
, they arc seli:s"pporting without expense
to the government, and it will make the
Indians amcnable to the laws of the
country like every other inhahitant
There are now upon the reservations
about zoo 900 Indians occupying lS5,oco,-
! 600 acres OF land, very little of which they
use for their benefit. To give every one OF
them Il farm OF 100 acres would take only
5l,Coo, 900 acres of land, leaving s., 400, 900
acres to furnish homes for more than half

CHEYENNE, Wyoming special: vt is
learned from reliable authority that the
Swan Brothers resumption of business is
DELAYED and endangered from the antagon-
ist;c action OF one OF their Chicago "quasi'
mariners, who had some interests in por.
t;ons of their former business. At his in.
situation two receivers have been appoint
ed to take charge Of two separate "estates'
for the purpose Of winding ul' the partner
shin. This action has tended to depreciate
the value Of their assets some hundreds OF
thousands of dollars, so that the present
outlook makes it doubtful if the present
cash valuation will equal their liabilities.

ia all probability, cause the assignment to
go fully into effect this week. There is no
preference Of creditors, and all are TO share
and share alike. Both residences OF the
Swan Brothers are included IN the assign

demning the apparent malicious course of
the party, as all the other creditors, as far
as heard from, were unanimous to give all
reasonable time, and several OF the credi'
tors volunteered to assist in substantial aid
